Thats my look on that.

Getting fat are you?

Back about 20 years ago i built a 58 chevy 3/4 ton pickup for my son to drive and we put a 353 DD and 4 speed trans in it. My son move on to better things so we sold the pick up to a driver here that said he wanted it and was going to first install twin air horns and then ask me were he could find a 13 speed trans to install in it. He stated that it ran good with the 4 speed but with the extra gears a 13 speed had he thinks it would go faster. I said ok.

Just keep dirt out of the oil passage.

In 98 or 99 DD came out with what was called half engine. Untill we got some schooling it fooled us. When cold it would start and run on 3 cylinders and also it would alternate on them untill it warmed up or the park brake was released.This fooled us as we as the drivers that got them then we learned how they were running but they would miss like crasy for a while.

I dont think its funny.

The DD in the photos has dad what is called piston debonding. The top of the piston is molded to the trunk part that holds the shirt on. I have seen it many times. One year and i cant remenber when DD had a lot of bad pistons like that. Many times a peice of piston get between the rod and block and the block is pushed out. Arrow trucking here who buy maybe 250 trucks a year and one year almost all of them had problems like that.They built their own wrecker to recover them so they would be repaired here at home. We replace about 70 engines complete and repair more than that under warranty.Some times a dealer some were would pull the valve cover on the road to find the problem and then close the hood for return home. They were many at one time in our yard waiting for their turn to come in the shop. One day i was giving a ticket and told to get it in and check it out. I towed it in with the fork lift and first then i found was V/C was off so i knew pan needed pulled next. I drained the pan and nothen was in the pan so i jack it up and removed the last bolt in the pan a not come down with the pan. I got a hammer and made it come down and i was under the pan. When it came down it almost mash my stuff out.I did not know but the rain water had drained in alround the back of the hood and filled the pan. Being this was in the winter and it was out side it was all ice in the oil pan.

Which ever model you end up using count the teeth on the old starter and make sure the one you reinstall is same count teeth.

I have alot of questions but dont know were to start.

Dont worry about the spining of the shaft. It will spin when its ready to. One thing you need to check is full throdle. Make sure your gas pedal is massing your lever all the way.That is witrh engine dead, not running.

I saw last year a line that had stopped up for some reason.I give him a old line being it was on sunday and it fix his problem.I have a old 673 line and injector that i can connect to the pump and crank over to se if the pump is putting out. You may look at the old injectors and make sure that tghe sealing ashers came out with the old injectors.Two sealing washers on one injector may be a problem

I believe this.

The company i work for brought out a new machine and used it 8 days before a oil line broke and it started a fire. No fire ex on machine so it burnt to the ground.That was last summer.

Your right

I like that

Sounds like a road i got on over there around Cherokee NC one day.

If you are needing a pump i have one with the advance that may be what you need.

This is very true.

We need snow or rain cause its still too dry.

This is a liberal coutry now dont you know. This is what so many people voted for soexspect any thing from now on.

If you will get in tough with Rob he has a manual he may look at the specs for you.

The giesel was a engine built v6 or v8 cummins sold to white motor co back in the late 60s. They modifide it to burn gas for mid range trucks.I have worked on a few of them before gas burners when by the way side.

The end673T had 18 9/16 head bolts. The end T673 had 20 5/8 studs and oil cooler nozzles for the piston cooling. The maxidyn was same way but had a fire ring on top of liner and differnt governor on the sam fuel pump.And it was painted gold.

When i think about it more i worked for mack 1965,66,67,68 and the B model was still in production when i started there and i remenber seein a ENDT 673b or c in them but did not ever remenber seeing a maxidyn in the B so the thermodyne may have came out a year eary than the maxidyl witch would be 65 for the thermodyn and 66 for the maxidyn.The best i remnebr.

Yes it was the 225 HP just a fuel setting and it would be a 250 HP
